Struggling With Hormonal Imbalance? You’re Not Alone.
From chronic fatigue to mood swings and weight changes, hormone dysfunction can silently impact every part of your life. Let’s get to the root and bring your body back into balance.
What Is Hormone Dysfunction?
Hormone dysfunction, also known as hormonal imbalance, occurs when you have too much or too little of one or more hormones in your body. Hormones are chemical messengers produced by various endocrine glands that regulate essential bodily functions including metabolism, growth, reproduction, mood, and sleep patterns.
Most people will experience natural hormonal fluctuations during their lifetime, particularly during puberty, pregnancy, menopause, and aging. However, some hormonal changes are related to underlying medical conditions that require professional attention and treatment.
